- I’m glad I came to listen
I came here for Jay, I didn’t know what to expect since I don’t follow this kind of shows but I got hooked, I’ll give a listen to other episodes and might get into other genres of books I don’t usually read. The chat goes at such a good pace that I didn’t feel it lasts 45 mins.

Mexico2 years ago - Listening into a special conversation
Really like the informal feel this podcast has. It feels like you are listening to a conversation that Anna and her guest would have while they were walking through a bookshop. Love the passion from Anna and her guests.
Highly recommend

United Kingdom2 years ago - My new favourite podcast!
I adore children’s literature as well as Anna’s books so could not be more thrilled that she has created a podcast that celebrates the magic and influence that stories can have but also discusses them objectively as an adult revisiting classic/enduring tales. She and her guests are incredibly fascinating to listen to (I could listen to Anna and Katherine chat all things kidlit for hours!) and her podcast has swiftly become an unmissable favourite for me.
Apple Podcasts5MaxFaz21United Kingdom2 years ago - I thought it was just me until….
I hear Katherine speak.
As a children’s author you are often smiled at as if you have chosen to be this because you can’t write real books.
This podcast was a joy to listen to.
Apple Podcasts5RupertWilkeyUnited Kingdom2 years ago - Horray for children’s book authors!
Loved listening to this insightful conversation with Katherine Rundell. Both Katherine and Anna are so thoughtful, articulate and intelligent. I could listen to them talk literature all day! I can’t wait to hear the other episodes.
